I just noticed these odd brown bumps along the stems of my goldfish plant. Can anyone tell me what they are/how to get rid of them?

I’m not positive but I think it might be scale! I don’t have much experience with it though!

좋아요 1개I use a q-tip and isopropyl alcohol to spot treat the large adults. They grab on tight so you have to kind of pop them off. Unfortunately this looks like a larger infestation, I would treat the entire plant with a diluted alcohol spray as well
좋아요 1개They keep their babies underneath. You have to weekly repeat the applications to get rid of all the descendants. Treat nearby plants, pots and the area around this plant. 🍀🪴
